Good Hurling Stops Tribe
Again; Solons Victors 2-1
By UNITED PRESS
Good pitching will beat the
Indians.
Red Rolfe said it before he
knew that Sid Hudson of the
Senators had topped Cleveland,
2 to 1, in 13 innings, while his
Tigers were scoring a thrilling,
5 to 4 victory over the Yankees.
But he couldn't have been
more prophetic. Because the In
dians, who have terrific pitch
ing themselves, just can't get
any runs when a top-flight hurl
er is facing them.
"They can be pitched to,"
Rolfe said. "We have two or
three on our staff who can han
dle them, and I think you'll find
they'll be in trouble with other
clubs, too, even though they
have great pitching on their own.
Spectacular Duel
That was the case Thursday
night when Cleveland ace Bob
Frldsy. Mey 1-
MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE NINE
He joined Bobby Shantz of the
A's, Art Houtteman and Ted
Gray of the Tigers, and Bob
Cain and Tommy Byrne of the
Browns as the "good pitchers"
able to throttle the Indians. Cain,
Houtteman, and Gray shut them
out. Hudson and Shantz gtive up
only one run each and Byrne
yielded three.
Two-Run Homer
Houtteman, with great relief
help from Dizzy Trout in the
ninth, topped the Yankees as Vic
Wertz supplied a pair of tremen
dous two run homers. With one
run in and none out as the Yan
kees batted in the ninth and with
runners on first and third, Trout
came in and retired the side.
In other American League
games, Joe Dobson of the White
Sox topped the A's 3 to 0. on
two hits, and the atomic Browns
defeated the Red Sox, 6 to 1. In

DERBY HOPEFUL - Hannibal,
Derby entrant, works out at
Churchill Downs, Louisville, Ky.
He will be ridden by W. ,1. Pass
more during Saturday's 78th run
ning of the $100,000 Kentucky
Derby.
the mile derby trial last Tues
day, still was to be heard from.
So were five other hopefuls, in
cluding Cold Command, Pintor,
Arroz, Eternal Moon and Swoop.
All were expected to be en
tered before the box closed. It
was -probable that one or two of
the expected 16 would be
scratched by the 6 a.m. deadline
Saturday unless it comes up mud
as predicted.
However, the racing strip at
Churchill Downs probably will
be at least "good" on Derby
day. The track drains fast and
rain wasn t predicted until Sat
urday morning, so no more than
14 horses were expected to pa
rade to the post when the band
plays "My Old Kentucky Home."
Gift Silver Out
One casualty Thursday was
Gift Silver, the undersized Cin
derclla colt from Iowa. Officially
it was announced that the little
horse which never had been to
the post, was withdrawn by Odic
Newel, his engineer owner, be
cause of a training Injury suf
fered while learning to break
from the starting gate. Actually,
five trainers protested to the
stewards that Gift Silver was a
hazard to the rest of the field.
' The stewards began their at
tack on Newcll's resolution to
run by barring his jockey, high
school boy Warren Perez, as in
competent. Entered along with Blue Man
were Count Flame, Master Fid
dle, Sub Fleet, Gushing Oil,
Hannibal and Shag Tails.
Rounding out the early entries
were the 60 to 1 duo of Smoke
Screen and Happy Go Lucky
and the 100 to 1 Brown Rambler.
beat the Dodgers, 7 to 2. to move
into a virtual first place tie, the
Giants drubbed Pittsburgh, 13 to
5, the Phils won, 6 to 3, from the
Cardinals, and the Reds edged
the Braves, 7 to 6.
The Giants rocked Mel Queen
right out of the majors. They pil
ed up a 9 to 0 lead, batting him
out with a seven run rally in the
third. Queen immediately was
released outright to Hollywood
of the Pacific Coast League after
a 10-year big league career.
Alice Bauer Favorite
In Fresno Golf Hassle
Fresno, Calif. (U.R) Babe
Didrikson Zaharias, with a brand
new putter to cure her golf
ills, was prepared to launch a
comeback Friday as the cream of
the nation's lady golfers teed off
in the $5,000 Fresno Women's
Open tournament.
Th belting Babe, using a new
putting tool acquired from Sun
nyside Country Club pro Dave
Martin, was back to her old form
as she fired a new course wom
en's record of 71 in a tune-up
round Thursday.
Co-favorite with Mrs. Zaharias
to win the $1,175 top money in
the 54-hole test was comely
Alice Bauer of Long Beach who
tied the Babe's record 71 with a
38 going out and a brilliant 33
incoming.
Massillon, O. (U.R) The
price of a bus ticket dropped in
stead of going up. The city coun

cents to 10 cents on the ground
the recent three-cent raise was
too much.

Lands Him in Jail
Chicago (U.R) Raymond W.

lice that he used a trick leg to
earn $35 to $50 a clay as a bt-g-
gar, was arrested when the
freakish leg joint betrayed him.
A policeman spotted Cable
sitting on a sidewalk Thursday
with one leg wrapped around his
neck. Cable unwound the leg and
started to run but couldn't out
distance the officer.
He said he was out of practice
a sprinter and told officers
that he had traveled from citv

trade.
